Chapter 100 - CHAPTER 99 (1/2)

As soon as the family came to know about Rose everyone came to the hospital including Rose's parents and Thomas with Julia.

Rose and Cindy were in the room with Rose and Rose had tears in her eyes and was crying out with pain every time she felt a contraction.

”God this hurts” screamed Rose.

”Few more minutes and we will be ready to welcome the baby,” said the gynaecologist and left the room.

”Be brave Rose?” said Sabrina and looked at Cindy. Sabrina saw Cindy with tears looking at Rose in pain.

”Isn't it amazing to be a mother? It's like we can feel the pain our child is going through.” Said Sabrina.

Rose looked at Cindy and said, ”not all mother's feel that mummy”.

”Don't say that. Every mother feels that. Look, who has tears for you seeing you in pain , of course, I can understand your pain cause I went through it at one time. But right now it's Cindy who is feeling the pain with you” said Sabrina and continued ”I will be outside. I want to check if Elisio showed up or not”

”Don't leave me mummy?” said Rose.

”I am not going anywhere. But at this time you only need your mother. She can only comfort you” said Sabrina and kissed Rose's forehead and left the room.

Rose felt another contraction and Cindy held Rose's hand.

”You can do this. You have always been a brave girl” said Cindy.

”Time taught me to be a brave mom. I had to survive alone you know” said Rose leaning back to the pillow behind her head and closing her eyes to relax.

”Rose, we don't deserve your forgiveness but I would really like to see you happy. And I can see you are happy with the wonderful family” said Cindy.

”Of course you don't deserve forgiveness. You have no idea what I am going through. You have no idea what your own child is going through. You should not even be considered as a mother. You sent me away to a mental asylum when all I needed was you to hold me and tell me it's okay. I was falsely accused of things which were never in my hand to start with. Instead of being there for me you just washed away your hands from me by sending away a child who was going through depression and calling it a mental state which needed severe treatment. I was already alone and you send me away to be even more alone” said Rose and felt another contraction.

After she relaxed she continued ”after two years in the asylum when the doctors cleared that I was okay, instead of bringing me back home you send me away to California to live alone, again.”

”We didn't know what to do. You said you saw Sofia.” Said Cindy.

”I still see her. She never left.” Said Rose exhausted from the pain from the contraction which was getting really close.

”Doctors said she is only in your mind and only you can send her away,” said Cindy.

”She promised to go away if I do one last thing,” said Rose.

”What is it?” Asked Cindy and Rose screamed in pain.

Ermanno walked in the room with the gynaecologist and the nurse told Cindy to leave and allowed only the father to stay.

Ermanno was dressed in scrubs and stood near Rose's head and held her hand.

”Ermanno make this stop” cried Rose.

”All will be over soon mio Rosa. I promise” said Ermanno.

Rose looked at Ermanno with tears in her eyes and said ”yes. All will be over soon. I love you Ermanno.”

”I love you more,” said Ermanno and that's when Rose felt another big contraction.

The whole family was in the private room waiting for the new member.

Well except Elisio.

”Where is the grandfather to be?” Asked Nevio.

That exact time Elisio walked in wearing sweatpants, hoody over his head, sunglasses and Starbucks coffee in his hand.
